  • Assessment - Assessing the quality of articles and their importance to the project. Probably one of our most important activities at the start of the project and on an ongoing basis. It will help us determine which articles deserve and require the most attention from our members.
  • Collaboration - Will be discussed after assessment of most of the articles is completed.
  • Outreach - Reaching out to Wikipedia users who may be interested in joining the project.
  • Peer reviews - Conducting peer review of articles upon request, to encourage better articles by having contributors collaborate and provide ideas on further improvement.

[edit] Surprising articles

Every so often I run across an article that is definitely related to us here, but from an unexpected corner, and I'd like to share them. The most recent are:

*Rev. Uttama Which is his name, and which his title? We really need to remove "Rev." and revert to name only as per WP:MOS about honorifics-Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom doesn't have her queenly title, and Akihito isn't referred to imperially in his namespace.
